Small Business Expo Presented by Wells Fargo

Newark, it’s go time. We’re kicking off Small Business Week with an all-day EXPO that goes way beyond name tags and panels. This is a full-blown entrepreneurial ignition packed with real talk, real tools, and real connections for anyone building, dreaming, or scaling a business in the Brick City. WHAT’S GOING DOWN: 🔥 Kickoff Breakfast + Live Vibes Start with coffee, a light bite, and live sets from Newark artists. Browse Small Business Vendor Way—a curated lineup of local talent and services you’ll actually want to support. 🎤 Keynotes + No-Fluff Panels Game-changing speakers from Wells Fargo, city government, and battle-tested founders dive into branding, AI, money moves, and how to actually land government contracts. 🛠️ Workshops That Work Roll up your sleeves and leave with strategies, not just slide decks. Hands-on sessions cover everything from digital marketing to financial readiness. 🤝 1-on-1 Coaching: Wells Fargo Business Growth Session Sit down with biz banking pros for direct feedback on capital, credit, and growth moves. No gatekeeping. Just clarity. 📍 Resource Vendor Way Connect with the folks who fund, train, and champion small businesses. Public, private, grassroots—it’s all here. 🍽️ Food’s on us (while it lasts). Yes, breakfast and lunch. No sad sandwiches. Come early, eat good.
